“We’ll try to locate those close to where people are, close to where the customers are, to minimize the logistics costs of getting the car to them,” the Tesla co-founder Elon Musk told Bloomberg. “I think long term you can see Tesla establishing factories in Europe, in other parts of the U.S. and in Asia.”
